Life's meaning

my english is not good
I have misunderstood your post

 

Maybe there isn't one meaning but many meanings? And the meaning is down to the type of person you are?

 

YouTube video.... idk if its a valid answer. But there's this creator called Hamza who made a video about purpose, describing it as not one singular thing but like an onion, having different layers. It's an elaborate 1 hour long video. Made me find my purpose.

 

I am 15 years old and still have no purpose, nor do I know why I live. I am just going.
I am trying to improve it as much as I can, starting with NoFap and building good habits
Any tips?

 

Watch this YouTube video whenever you have time.

 

How about asking this question from the perspective of our Creator? What was the purpose in creating us, in creating this universe ?

 

Yes, I agree. Have you also considered that God created us and resides in us (and all of creation) in order to know every part of Himself? By that I mean our eyes cannot see themselves. They need a mirror.

 

To understand ourselves so deeply that suffering comes to an end.

 

The purpose of life is you. What do you think about all day? What do you imagine the kind of man/woman you want to be? What do you want to do work? What visualization do you do all the time? Make it happen, and even "if" you reach the top, you still have ways to go. Purpose ends when you die. When you leave this world have a positive impact.

 

My purpose is living the best version of myself. Things change, goals change and people change all the time so it doesn’t really have a definite meaning or purpose to it. In the end, it is what YOU make of it while you’re here. IMO…

 

All I can say is that there is a paradox at work here, meaning why would a Being need to create a universe if He is all-knowing ? I'm still grappling with this question. For sure, I am beginning to understand that "my" intellect cannot comprehend this.

Where I'm at now is here : as I said before, our eyes cannot see themselves. People cannot know themselves in totality until they enter into relationship with other people. In other words, into duality. God "entered" into duality when He created the universe.

If God "knows Himself without the necessity of us" then why do you think He created us ?
I cannot pretend to know the mind of the Creator. However, I enjoy using our God-given curiosity!

Best wishes,
I.W

 

Ive been searching tbh ive found alot of it in volunteer work, i worked on fixing the website for a local church and bringing the site into the modern era lol. I dont consider myself religous i just like to help where I can and they seemed like they could use it

 

He didn't need, but He wanted

This is true for us as created beings, but not for the Creator.

He created us for love :-D

Good!

 

i've had a few stupid relationships last couple of years. the thing i learned from them and people that had to leave my life because of me being irresponsible and difficult to be intimate with:

• i have a duty to find meaning in through my trials and tribulations,
• and that way treating every person as a flawed version of the Lord on earth.

the price i pay for not doing so is denying the divine nature of "you"... not treating the other person as an infinitely small manifestation of the Lord.

when i accept my fate and the tragedy of "now", everyone is better off then. or at least they should be.

does that make sense? i'm not saying i'm not stressed or lonely. but i do have a reason to go through the day. and that's my meaning.

 

Can we admit we don’t know why the Creator created this universe? That we don’t even know if there is a why?

 

Yes, we can. But I embrace what my Catholic faith says about a generous God creating everything for love :-D

 

The Catholics said that. I am not saying they were wrong. But Mara, what do you know to be true?“
"To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
